What you need to know about the Broadway Park Lofts in Salt Lake City, Utah

Before you run off and buy one of the Broadway Park Lofts, you really should read this and find out what you are getting in to. I'm not saying this to scare you away because I love the Broadway Park Lofts and you may, too. But, you should be aware of a few things before you go and purchase one.

Phase I at the Broadway Park Lofts in SLC has completely sold out and they sold very quickly. Phase II at the Broadway Park Lofts will be selling soon. As soon as these units are available, you will be able to see them here. If you don't see any units on that link, it is because none are availble yet so keep coming and checking.

I'm going to tell you what I love and what I haate about the Broadway Park Lofts. What do you want to read first, the good or the bad? Because there is some of both. I usually like to get bad news first because then I get the good news last and it leaves me feeling good, so, with that being said, here is the bad.

What I hate about the Broadway Park Lofts:

There are three things that come to mind immediately.

1. The heating system2. The parking situation3. The proximity to Pioneer Park

First, the heating system. In a nutshell, it sucks. Many of the owners in Phase I of the Broadway Park Lofts have found that their heating system is not sufficient to heat their condo and fixing it is very expensive. The fact is that you are probably going to have to supplement your heater with space heaters in the winter time. Sorry. I've heard that the units in phase II of the Broadway Park Lofts will not have this problem.

Second, the parking situation is less than ideal. The parking garage is not very secure and being located across the street from the most infamous park in Salt Lake City calls for a secure parking garage. Again, I've heard that this may soon be rectified.

Now let's get to what I love, because, like I said before, I really do love the Broadway Park Lofts

What I love about the Broadway Park Lofts:

The Broadway Park Lofts in Salt Lake City have the 'it' factor. They are just so cool. Let me tell you this now, if you don't want to buy one of these units, then don't go visit them because you will fall in love with them and your brain will immediately begin trying figure out how it can get you to buy one. There are a lot of loft communities in the downtown SLC area and not all of them have that 'lofty' feel to them. I would feel confident saying that the Broadway Park Lofts are the coolest lofts in downtown Salt Lake City. They are not the most luxurious, that would be the 35 W Broadway Lofts, but they are just so cool.

I absolutely love the garage door style windows that take up one whole side of the loft. When the weather is good, you can open up the entire side of your condo just like you open a garage door. There is a railing so you won't fall out, by the way. I can't think of any better way to enjoy an autumn day in downtown Salt Lake City than to open your windows at the Broadway Park Lofts and take in the cool air.

I also love the location. Yes, even though I hate that it is next to Pioneer Park, I do like being close to the freeway, close to Energy Solutions Arena, the Gateway, City Creek, and everything else downtown. Plus the farmers market at Pioneer Park during the summer almost makes up for all the illicit drug deals that take place there on other days.
